Hi,
The easiest way would be down to Chassis member then along it to below battery box. The +tve and -tve from battery come out of the battery box via rubber grommets/holes in the battery box sides. More than enough room to take more cables.

THere are two large rubber grommets in the engine bay - this is the one on the driver's side:

there's also a similar one on the passenger side but more difficult to get to as it's obscured by the bracket for the heater hoses[/img]

I use the px side through the bulkhead.

Be warned it's far from an easy access point! But doable Mike
